The arrests of Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada and Joaquín Guzmán López, son of Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán, have raised significant intrigue and speculation due to the mysterious circumstances surrounding their capture. Both were apprehended in El Paso, Texas, a major breakthrough in the U.S. efforts against the Sinaloa Cartel.
One of the leading theories suggests that Zambada, a historic leader of the Sinaloa Cartel, may have been kidnapped prior to his arrest. Reports indicate that he might have been lured onto a plane by Guzmán López under the pretense of a real estate transaction, only to be handed over to U.S. authorities upon landing in El Paso. This scenario points to potential internal betrayal within the cartel or secret negotiations with U.S. law enforcement.
The DEA has emphasized the importance of these arrests, noting that Zambada has been a top target for decades due to his significant role in drug trafficking operations. The apprehension of these figures is seen as a major blow to the cartel's operations. However, the exact details and motivations behind their capture remain unclear, fueling ongoing speculation and investigation into the events leading up to their arrest.
In this episode, we continue our exploration of the arrest and the circumstances surrounding it.
